"...So why is that? Do you want me to keep guessing?"
'Okay, it's nothing really. I just rejected a really outrageous request of hers. Actually, it has something to do with you.'
"???" Shen Jingchuan frowned deeply. "What does this have to do with me? I don't even know her."
"Because her stepfather wants to marry her off to an older man, and she doesn't want to, she came to me hoping I could persuade you to pretend to be her boyfriend so her stepfather won't force her to marry him."
"??????" Although Shen Jingchuan was very handsome, he was still shocked at this moment, looking like an old man on the subway looking at his phone.
"Is she sick in the head? Did she just escape from a mental hospital? Is she out of her mind?"
'That's what I thought too. You have no idea how shocked I was. So I rejected her. She even threatened me. Maybe that's why she holds a grudge against me.'
'However, I didn't expect that she could persuade her second brother to do things for her. In my impression, she didn't have a good relationship with her stepbrother. No, no, no, it seems that she didn't have a good relationship with the entire Qiao family.'
"That's why she's jealous of me, jealous of how good you all are to me. She used to give me a lot of bad advice, and I was really naive back then, so I actually listened to her advice and did a lot of stupid things."
"Vicious!" Shen Jingchuan said with utter contempt when commenting on Qiao Kexin. "They are a truly disgusting family. The Qiao family is doomed!"
An emotionless, robotic female voice: 'Yes, it's disgusting.'
Wen Yan: [Phew~ Thank goodness he didn't ask me in detail how Qiao Kexin threatened me back then; I couldn't answer that.]
Shen Jingchuan: "I have another question. You just said she threatened you. How did she threaten you, and what did she use to threaten you?"
Wen Yan: [Does he have mind-reading abilities? How come he can read my mind exactly as I think about it?]
Shen Jingchuan: "…………" Hey, what a coincidence, it really is.
Wen Yan shook her head.
An emotionless, robotic female voice: 'You misheard me, I didn't say that.'
"Really? I have proof."
Because Wen Yan had been communicating with Shen Jingchuan using text-to-speech, all the words she typed were recorded by her phone.
Shen Jingchuan leaned closer, swiped her screen, and tapped with his index finger: "What do you say? Still trying to deny it?"
Wen Yan shook her head.
A emotionless, robotic female voice: 'It's just empty threats, like saying I'll definitely regret it later.'
Shen Jingchuan squinted at Wen Yan, then suddenly crossed his arms and leaned back in his chair.
“It’s meaningless. I thought we had reconciled and gone back to how we were before. We talked for so long by the river that day, I thought that was a heart-to-heart talk.”
An emotionless, robotic female voice: 'It's calculated, it's calculated.'
"Stop trying to flatter me!" Shen Jingchuan said seriously. "Actually, I know you sold the car. Because I went back today. Do you know why I was able to get to you in such a short time? From the time I received your location sharing to the time I found you, it only took me a little over ten minutes."
"Because I'm not very bright, I forgot you had plans with someone tonight. After securing the investment, I stupidly went and bought barbecue and crayfish to bring back for you. But when I got back, I realized you weren't even home tonight."
"The thought that you sold your car to transfer 5 million to me made me... I immediately called you. Do you know how panicked I was when I saw you lying on the ground with your face covered in blood?"
"I'm absolutely terrified! I fucking thought you were dead! What if... what if we found your body today? What am I supposed to do?"
Shen Jingchuan has a fiery temper and speaks somewhat hastily, but every word he says comes from the bottom of his heart, and his eyes were red when he said these words.
Wen Yan was all smiles, but when she heard Shen Jingchuan say these things, she suddenly felt a tightness in her chest. But soon, that tightness turned into a warm current, flowing gently into her limbs and bones.
No wonder she smelled barbecue when Shen Jingchuan carried her into the car. At the time, she thought it was her imagination, but it turned out to be true.
"You're finally satisfied with your carefree lifestyle, hehe (Thank you for worrying me)."
"..." Shen Jingchuan's high spirits were instantly shattered by Wen Yan's ambiguous words.
"You should give your tongue a rest and type it out. You don't need to thank me; you're quite capable yourself. Even though I didn't arrive in time, you managed to handle it all by yourself. I'm the one who should be saying thank you. Thank you for the five million."
A emotionless, robotic female voice: 'No need, no need, you're making me feel bad. It's something I owe you anyway.'
"I told you you don't need to pay it back. Consider this five million as your investment, and you'll get a share of the profits later. Now, tell me, how exactly did that guy surnamed Qiao threaten you?"
Wen Yan: "…………" Damn it, we've come full circle back to this issue.
A emotionless, robotic female voice: 'Is the soundproofing good here? Will anyone hear us? Are there people coming and going outside?'
"No, I'm a VVIP, I paid a lot of money."
An emotionless, robotic female voice: 'Can't you just not talk about it?'
"What is it that can't be said? I already know about your amnesia, why would I care about such a small thing?"
Wen Yan: Drugging my eldest brother at home is no small matter.
In the end, she chose to type instead of converting to speech.
Shen Jingchuan was completely distraught after reading it.
He was mute for a few seconds before he regained his voice.
